1 Annual Report M i c h i g a n T e c h Graduate School create the future change the world
2 Message From the Dean I am extremely pleased to present this edition of Michigan Tech s Graduate School Annual Report. Many people contributed to making this report a reality by gathering data, reviewing it for accuracy, and preparing it for distribution. Jacqueline E. Huntoon Dean of the Graduate School jeh@mtu.edu Administration Building 411A When I first became dean in 2005, one of my major goals was to use data to make informed decisions. At that time, few data related to graduate education were readily available. My staff and I, along with many other dedicated people, have worked hard to identify the types of information that we must look at and track through time if Michigan Tech is to achieve its strategic plan goals. This document is our way of getting information about the Graduate School out to people who are interested in seeing what has happened in the past and where we are heading in the future. In most cases, retrospective or current data presented here are accompanied by a statement of where we hope to be at some point in the future. I look forward to hearing from people about our goals and collaborating with all of the Graduate School s stakeholders to refine the goals and then work together to achieve them. Our success really depends on everyone. Jacqueline E. Huntoon Dean of the Graduate School American Indian/ Alaskan Native African American/ Non-Hispanic Graduate Student Enrollment Percent by Ethnicity: Fall 2008 Asian/ Asian American Hispanic/ Hispanic American White/ Non-Hispanic International Multiracial Not Supplied
3 PhD Support Types: Percentage of Students by Year Internal Support Source 28 External Support Source Self-supported Internal financial support includes teaching and research assistantships provided by Michigan Tech. External funds include fellowships, grants, and contracts. Self-supported students pay their own way or have support from an employer or another organization. Our goal is to have all PhD students supported by internal or external funds for at least four years, with at least half of those students supported with external funds. Master s Support Types: Percentage of Students by Year Internal Support Source 40 External Support Source Self-supported 10 0 In order to meet our strategic plan goals, we will need to continue to increase the number of professional master s programs that are designed to meet the career-development needs of self-supported students. Together, these two graphs show that Michigan Tech is increasingly focusing the use of its internal funds on PhD students, in accordance with strategic plan goals. About Michigan Tech Our students engage in cutting-edge research in a beautiful, natural environment known for its recreational opportunities. The pristine coastline of Lake Superior, the northern hardwoods, and the wildlife of the region are just a few things that attract graduate students to Michigan Tech. Students bike the Tech Trails, kayak the area s lakes and rivers, ski on abundant powder, and view the aurora borealis. Michigan Tech s graduate students are engaged in research that is resulting in new knowledge that provides economic and societal benefits to the state of Michigan, the nation, and the world Mission The Graduate School is responsible for coordinating Michigan Tech s programs to recruit, retain, and mentor graduate students. The Graduate School provides service to graduate students and faculty to support Michigan Tech s efforts in the areas of education, research, and outreach. Vision The Graduate School will lead Michigan Tech in achieving its strategic goals by ensuring that all graduate students receive a high-quality education that prepares them for productive lives in technologically robust, multinational settings.

This chart shows the number of students who achieved important milestones during the indicated time period after they began their program. Our goal is to have most students complete qualifying/comprehensive and proposal defense exams within two years and complete their degrees within four years. Our overall completion rate is currently 62 percent with a median time to degree of 7.2 years. Our median time to degree compares favorably with the national average for all High Research Universities (8.9 years). Median time to degree data are from the Survey of Earned Doctorates
6 International Graduate Students spanning the globe The Graduate School recognizes the role international students play in maintaining Michigan Tech s Carnegie Foundation classification as a high research activity, doctorate-granting research university. International students are often among the top candidates for admission to graduate programs nationwide. Michigan Tech s ability to attract and retain international students is a testament to its international reputation for quality. Michigan Tech s international students bring global perspectives to our campus and community and help our domestic students gain experience working with individuals from other cultures. Their contributions and presence on the campus are helping the University achieve its strategic goals. Michigan Tech s graduate student population currently consists of 43 percent international students from forty-seven countries. Students from India and China comprise 72 percent of the international graduate population on campus. top countries of origin 165 Graduate Students 141 Graduate Students 8 13 Graduate Students 5 7 Graduate Students 3 4 Graduate Students 2 Graduate Students 1 Graduate Student Alicia Thorsen Alicia Thorsen, a native of Trinidad and Tobago, is a PhD student in the computer science department. One of only twenty winners of the prestigious 2007 Google Anita Borg Memorial Scholarship, Thorsen is researching parallel algorithm and application development using the Unified Parallel C (UPC) programming model. Her research will be used to link multiple computers and increase computational speed, allowing the computers to solve larger, more complex problems. Thorsen is committed to introducing young women to computer science and has taught computer science courses for the computer science department and Youth Programs.
7 China 141 india 165 Shreehari Elangovan Originally from Coimbatore, India, Shreehari Elangovan is a PhD student in mechanical engineering. Elangovan researches the hypoelastic properties of the human body, focusing on the stresses in the body that cause cysts to form on our nerves. When complete, his research will allow early detection of stresses that lead to the formation of cysts on nerves located in the knee joint. Michigan Tech has been an ideal environment for research, says Elangovan. Students here are taught by extremely knowledgeable and experienced people who have practical experience in the field.
8 Domestic Graduate Students State of Origin Domestic graduate students have been on Michigan Tech s campus since They have historically been the largest portion of the graduate population. In the fall of 2008, domestic graduate students made up 57 percent of the entire graduate population at Michigan Tech. These students came from across the United States, with the greatest concentration coming from the midwestern states of Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, and Ohio. Thirty-seven of our fifty states and Puerto Rico are currently represented in our graduate population. Michigan has always been a strong source for graduate students; in fall 2008, onethird of the graduate students enrolled were Michigan residents. These students came from sixty-three of the eighty-three Michigan counties. The Detroit Tri-County Area currently supplies over 15 percent of our graduate enrollment.
9 Female Male Gender of Graduate Students by College Fall 2008 Women are underrepresented nationwide in PhD programs in science, technology, engineering, and math. According to the 2009 American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) report, Michigan Tech s Graduate School awarded a greater percentage of PhDs in engineering to women than any of the other universities in the country that awarded twenty-five or more PhDs in engineering last year. In , the most recent year for which data are available, Michigan Tech granted 40 percent of its PhDs in engineering to women. The Graduate School actively works to increase the number of degrees granted to women. At both the local and national level, the Graduate School collaborates with organizations such as the Society of Women Engineers (SWE) to promote the benefits of graduate education. 41% 59% 23% 77% 52% 48% School of Business and Economics 34 Total Students College of Engineering 534 Total Students School of Forest Resources and Environmental Science 75 Total Students 40% 60% 35% 65% 31% 69% College of Sciences and Arts 173 Total Students No College Designated 68 Total Students Overall University 984 Total Students
